Method Detail

accept

public void accept(SEShowVisitor visitor)

Description copied from interface: SENode

Calls the visit method corresponding to this node type.

If you are defining a user-defined feature, there are some restrictions that you'll want to follow. If your extension is a feature that has children, then you should make it a subclass of one of the built-in feature types, Assembly, Modifer or Group. That's because the GRIN compiler defines visitors that need to visit every node in the tree, but these built-in visitors don't know about your extension types. By making your extension type a subclass of one of the standard ones, and by making your accept() method call either visitAssembly(), visitGroup() or visitUserDefinedModifier(), as appropriate, you'll ensure that all the children get visited.

Parameters:

visitor - SEShowVisitor object.

postProcess

public void postProcess(ShowBuilder builder)
                 throws java.io.IOException

Do any needed post-processing in this show. The grin compiler works as follows:

• GRIN source file is read and tree is built in memory
• Forward references are resolved (in multiple passes)
• postProcess() is called on every node. During the call, child feature nodes can be added, and parent features can be injected.
• The double-use checker runs to ensure the graph structure is valid.
• Deferred builders (e.g. TranslatorHelper) are called. Deferred builders cannot make changes to the tree structure.

During the post-process phase, a node can add new features to the show, by calling ShowBuilder.addSyntheticFeature(), and it can insert a new feature as the parent of a given feature, by calling ShowBuilder.injectParent(). It can also add segments and handlers by calling the appropriate builder methods.

When a parent is injected, the ShowBuilder calls postProcess() on all nodes automatically, including nodes that are created during the execution of postProcess() in another node.

Specified by:

postProcess in interface SENode

Overrides:

postProcess in class SEGrinXHelper

Parameters:

builder - The builder that holds state for the show

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an error is encountered

See Also:

ShowBuilder.addSyntheticFeature(Feature), ShowBuilder.injectParent(Feature, Feature)

changeFeatureReference

public void changeFeatureReference(Feature from,
                                   Feature to)

Change a feature reference from one feature to a new one. If your node has a reference to the feature from, it should be changed to refer to to. This is called for every node in an SEShow when SENode.injectParent is used.

The ShowBuilder calls changeFeatureReference() on all nodes automatically, including nodes that are created during the execution of postProcess().

Specified by:

changeFeatureReference in interface SENode

Overrides:

changeFeatureReference in class SEGrinXHelper

See Also:

SENode.changeFeatureReference(Feature, Feature)

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Return a user-friendly string for this command for debugging purposes.

Overrides:

toString in class GrinXHelper
